In the middle of restoring my interior on my 1983 Jimmy. Planning to purchase new carpet/seat covers/ rear interior side panels/lower door panels. I'm struggling on where to purchase from.

Brothers Truck Parts seems like good pricing but it kinda looks like all the pieces will be different shades of grey and charcoal. Planning to do grey but I want some consistency in color.

LMC trucks seems to be consistent color, but doesn't have the rear panels. It also makes me a little unsure on seat covers and carpet as Brothers has Low Back, High Back and Deluxe High Back seats where LMC only has Low and High back. Wondering if the LMC high back is supposed to fit deluxe and non deluxe. Also the LMC carpet doesnt specify large vs small hump like all other carpet manufactures do, that seems odd.

Would love any input on these two manufacturers or recommendations on others? Im ready to order ASAP

Thanks
 
im looking at doing the same to the interrior.

i was going to use 1/4" plywood paneling from home depot for the rear panels, cut to fit. i figured with my k5 being light blue and white a light stained plywood would be fine.

i was planning on gong with the lmc carpet kits, and door panel kits.

as for seats im not sure what to do yet either. im not sure what they are out of and all i want is a good looking vinyl seat front and rear. because when i sit on the cloth seats with my wetsuit on after being in the lake it soaks up real quick, and surf wax comes out of vinyl easier than cloth or leather.

I'd go stockinteriors for carpet. ACC carpet without the mark up.
Try these guys for seat covers:

I used stockinteriors.com too. Great stuff. Give them a call and also ACC. Ask for some carpet samples sent to you and then you can match the specific color you want.

I actually liked the ACC color over stockiterior's gray so all I said when ordering was "I want ACC's color #****". Delivered to me directly from ACC.

Before ordering, I called ACC to price match stockinteriors because they were simply drop shipping it.....they said no strangely. :confused: Identical material for cheaper price. :haha:
 
Thanks for the replies. I'm going to look into both. Looks like Brothers Trucks and carandtruckupholstery.com sell the same brand seat covers...
 
Here's some pics of my interiors. If you look at my build it may help you with doing yours.

Thanks Teck. Where did you order your carpet and seat covers? What specific colors are those, they look just like my original.
 
I got he carpet from ACC
Got the seat fabric from SMS fabric, they sale oem stuff. Then had a upholstery guy sew the up.
 
We're a dealer for ACC. We can also send you a free color sample if you need one.

Here's a link to the carpet section on our website if you would like to check on prices.
